2019 Map of Roscommon North

About this map

The South Branch Au Sable River meanders through the heart of this landscape, a renowned waterway that defines the northern Michigan character of this region near the Crawford and Roscommon county line. The village of Roscommon sits at the southern edge of the survey, serving as a gateway to the extensive public lands of the Huron National Forest and the Kirtlands Warbler Wildlife Management Area. These protected areas provide a refuge for rare species and a haven for outdoor recreation, featuring numerous transit routes such as the Shore to Shore Trail and the MI Shore-To-Shore Horse&Hike. Local landmarks like Chase Bridge and Steckert Bridge cross the river, while the Pioneer Cem offers a point of interest for genealogists. The settlement at Deerheart Valley and the myriad of named forest roads and trails, such as W Pere Cheney Rd and W Gobblers Trl, illustrate the integration of community life with the surrounding wilderness.
